So the thing about Tak’s Holo-Disguise is that it specifically might not be an example of Tak using more advanced technology than Zim.
The implication in “The Nightmare Begins” is that Zim maybe also have access to Perfectly Realistic Human Disguises, probably similar to Tak’s Hologram - but he intentionally rejected them because he saw them as too ugly. He deliberately chose his shitty little costume because he thought that was the only one that looked ‘good’.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And these terrible disguises are also pretty consistent with how the actual official Invaders disguise themselves. If anything, Zim’s got the best costume of the lot!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So with Zim dismissing the more realistic disguises as being ‘ugly’ and ‘stinky’ and those being… basically the most common insults he throws at humans. ..I think the implication here is pretty clearly that Zim’s (and the actual Irken Invaders’) disguises are bad because he doesn’t want to look too human because Irken Imperial Indoctrination has taught him every other species in the universe is revolting and so he cannot stand the idea of looking too match like the people he is trying to infiltrate.
So it is interesting that the one Irken who actually uses their advanced technology to actually look like another species is Tak. Maybe she’s just being a bit of a show-off overachiever. So driven by the need to prove how competent of an Invader she can be she decided to suffer through the indignity of Using a Competent Disguise. 
Tumblr media
Or maybe there’s sort of an implication that Tak doesn’t really buy into Irken Ideology that much?
Like, obviously, she’s not, like,  some sort of anti-Imperial pro-alien advocate or anything. She’s still trying to gain the respect of the Tallest, she still wants to become an Invader, she is still willing to sacrifice an entire planet in order to achieve her goals. 
I’m thinking more, like, Zim is 100% a true believer in Irken Imperial Ideology. He wants to be an Invader at least in part so he could use his ‘amazingness’ to contribute to the conquests of the Irken Empire. And he legitimately believes the Tallests are superior beings worthy of his admiration. And he legitimately believes Irkens are superior to all other sapient beings in the universe in general and to humans especially.
Meanwhile, Tak’s main goals might just be to gain as much power and prestige as she can - no matter what or who stands in her way. If she lived in a society that valued dentists above all she would’ve become a dentist. But she was born in the Irken Empire, and the most prestigious not-height-dependent position available to her in Irken Society is the one of an Invader, so that’s what she dedicated her life to. Not out of any ideological commitment to help the Empire's conquests.
She tries to gain the Tallests’ favor because she knows she needs them to get ahead in life, not necessarily because she craves their tall, superior approval the way Zim does. She can kill a lot of non-Irkens on her way to ‘greatness’, but it’s more of a general callousness towards other people - rather than loyalty to the superiority of the Irken people. 
That might also explain why she’s the one Irken with the sense of individuality to customize her uniform
Tumblr media
And design her own version of the Irken Empire Flag, based on her own look.
Tumblr media
Because maybe she’s not trying to serve the Irken Empire, maybe she’s just trying to serve Tak.

My personal take on Irken heights and designs! More insight into my process under the cut.
I exagerrated the heights of most Irkens to further pronounce Zim's lackingness- As well as make it make more sense in universe for the Almighty Tallest to single out Zim and Skoodge specifically for being short.
Tumblr media
Larb in particular regularly recieves favoritism due to his height, so I made him taller to make it more fitting.
I also gave Spleen hideous veins because I hate you all personally. (There is definitely something wrong with him)
As for Tak I kept her height relatively the same in comparison to Zim which would make her pretty short by typical Irken standards.
Tumblr media
I also removed her cross hatched mouth because it just confuses me and I don't really like it.
Tumblr media
Tenn is popular amongst the fandom for some reason so I included her since I needed more female Irkens.
Although I took more inspiration from her first appearance than her more prominent role in Megadoomer because she looked too similar to Zim.
And of course there's Zim himself. I made sure he was the shortest- Even moreso than Skoodge because that's hilarious.
Pint isn't a real Invader moreso just an extra Irken I added to showcase traits that other potential candidates weren't able to- Such as the brownish eyes and chubbier build on a female Irken.
Tumblr media
I refrained from drawing Sizz-Lorr's hat because I wanted to show off his antennae.
I also changed the logo on his metal sleeve things to have two eyes instead of one- Since the one eye symbol is supposed to be for Invaders only.
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
As for the Tallest without the suit, I took inspiration from this concept art from The Trial- Which depicts the young Tallest as Irken Elite.
Tumblr media
I do think it looks pretty cursed with that awful huge head on that tiny stick body. I made Red TALL, tall enough to be the tallest living Irken (tied with purple) but the height is greatly exagerrated by the suit.
Tumblr media
Since I buffed the Irken race so hard size wise JUST to screw over Zim, naturally Dib (who is even smaller) got screwed over even harder

My Universe...
ZADR/TAGR Alien Stage AU
Tumblr media
Upon Zim's betrayal on his truce with humanity and the Irken armada conquering Earth, Tak was assigned as Gaz Membrane's guard. She knew that the human had talent, but she also knew that the competition was harsh and competent. With a worry that she wouldn't recognise of having, she disguised herself as human to participate against the ones who could erase her happiness from existence.
When the turn of each other to participate together came, she wasn't worried at all. She never feared death, nor did she think she would really die, her pak could always bring her back as new. What she didn't expect was for her life to collapse, for her love to be returned, or for her heart to be found, only to be broke.
AU made between me and @red-roka <3

hi uh haha err, I BEG YOU PLEASE DRAW TAK AND MIMI, im so in love with your art *crying*
literally me, when i see your arts:
Tumblr media
AHHEEHEHEHEHE THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! I also love your artwork!!! Your recent drawings have me grinning ear to ear, no lie
I freakin LOVE TAK, when I hear her voice it makes me go apeshit bananas goo goo bonkers. ("SECURITY DEFENSE SYSTEMS ACTIVATED. INTRUDER DETECTED. GET YOUR FILTHY ALIEN MEAT OUT OF THE COCKPIT" me: starts clawing at the walls of my enclosure 😳💕💕💕) Character development is having a crush on dib as a kid, and one on tak as an adult lol
I don't want to sit on this ask until I make some new tak drawings, (I'm the queen of procrastination, I know I could easily do that) so I'm going to take this as an opportunity to share some stuff I've been sitting on. I've had these drawings in my sketchbook for maybe a month now. And I was looking forward to sharing them at the time, but I have this weird complex about sharing my stuff that it has to be all fully rendered and pretty. I'm trying to get away from that. And I can honestly say that since these drawings are a little on the older side, I most likely won't put aside the time to go over them. SO YOU GET THEM ALL ROUGH. Sorry no mimi. Yet
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Couple first attempts at drawing her? I think I was aiming for an "older" disguised Tak. As you can see, she has a default expression
Tumblr media
This was drawn from another older drawing, nutmegan from puss in boots doing the touchdown pose on the wishing star. I thought it suited her. Nevermind the missing backpack :')
Tumblr media Tumblr media
She's just a little crazy!!! (I still like the first one.... I love her weird snively cackle laugh auughjhghhhhg)
I did draw her out of disguise, but they don't look as good. I want to draw more of her obviously. She's so cool and I love her. Hope you like these!
